The Scourge of Pirates

Chapter 211 Snatching Devil Fruits (2 in 1)

The next day.

The hanging lamp above Dick City remained unchanged.

It was early in the morning, and there was a thin layer of water vapor floating on the stone roads around the block.

The soft yellow light penetrates into the water vapor, reflecting the hazy light perception.

On the street, pedestrians stepped back and forth, making ripples of the hazy water vapor.

At this time, there are still two hours before the start of the Beasts Finals.

However, many people on the Long Street have gone to the Colosseum.

After all, it is a large arena that can accommodate more than 100,000 spectators.

If you go early, you don't have to wait in line to get in.

This is their idea.

Luo walked through the crowd, squinting at the pedestrians passing by.

Beibo held [Ghost Cry] and walked side by side with Luo.

In the game some time ago, Beibo lost to Pele, and it was still a miserable defeat.

The cruel reality made him depressed to the present.

For this, he just wanted to leave this sad place quickly.

Today, the captain of his own will finally take action against the national treasure of the Ahab Kingdom.

As long as they can successfully obtain a large number of hanging lamp vine roots, they can leave Leviathan today.

Leave this sad place! ! !

Bei Bo shouted in his heart.

"Captain, when are we going to grab... well, take away the roots of the hanging lamp vine?"

"Ah……"

Luo tugged at the corner of his mouth, looked up at the hanging lamp vine, and said lightly: "When the cheers of the Colosseum are the enthusiastic..."

"Oh."

Beibo nodded.

"Um...Should we say hello to Maud before we leave?"

"Brother Mod????"

Luo tilted his head and looked at Bei Bo with an unbelievable look.

"Can't you call him brother~?"

Bebo wringed her fingers shyly.

"..."

Luo has nothing to say.

Before leaving, he didn't plan to say hello to Maude.

Without going to take Beibo, Luo walked forward.

This bear at home is good for everything.

Just can't stand the praise.

Sometimes, he doubted that this bear might be abducted by rhetoric.

Two hours passed.

The hazy water vapor on the road dissipated, leaving a water mark.

Outside the Colosseum, a large number of soldiers were stationed.

A square with a huge broadcast screen hung in the distance was also crowded with people.

Almost everyone's eyes in the city are focused on the upcoming Beast Finals, which is unprecedented.

Inside the Colosseum, heads of people in the auditorium moved, and only a small area of ​​empty seats was vacated.

There, Maude, Lafayette, and Jim were sitting there.

With them as the center point, no one dared to sit in dozens of seats around.

The strange phenomenon makes them very conspicuous.

In this regard, Maude is also helpless.

"Boss, hasn't the game started yet?"

Bailey squatted on Maude's lap, yawning bored.

"Soon."

Maude looked up at the VIP box standing at the apex of the Colosseum.

In the high altitude directly in front of the box, a square transparent crystal box hung.

The bottom of the crystal box is padded with a red soft cloth.

A watch strap has a dark green wavy pattern, with three pointed devil fruits on top of it, resting on a soft cloth.

The devil fruit is the champion prize of the Beast Contest.

Maude stared silently at the devil fruit.

In the auditorium, most of the audience are people in Dick City.

Their attention is basically on the iron fence gate at the end of the two stone roads in the north and south of the ring. They want to see the contestants on the stage as soon as possible, and then bring them a hearty beast fight.

And audiences like Maude who come to the devil fruit are not rare.

They are also silently watching the devil fruit in the crystal box hanging high in the sky.

People such as Buffalo of the Don Quixote family did not intend to win the Devil Fruit by participating in the competition from the beginning.

Taking it directly is the fastest and most rude way.

The pirates who had the same idea as Buffalo and others were in the audience, but there were only a lot more.

The malice that was brewing was hidden under the warm atmosphere in the venue.

Maude retracted his gaze to look at the Devil Fruit, with a calm expression, and said: "Next, in what way will it kick off?"

"Naturally...violence."

Lafayette smiled coldly.

Just a glance at the surrounding auditorium, you can easily pick out a group of colleagues who came in bad faith.

And their goals are self-evident.

At that time, looting will only be expected.

Maude said indifferently: "The chaos the revolutionary army wants to see, it seems that someone will help us."

"Hey...not only that, the devil fruit is really in a good position."

"Yes."

Maude smiled.

Like him, there are moon steps.

Lafayette also has the ability to fly.

In this way, no matter what method those eager colleagues will use to start the prelude to snatching the Devil Fruit, he and Lafayette can also approach the Devil Fruit for the first time by virtue of their empty walk ability.

Now, they just have to wait patiently for the time to come.

As for whether the devil fruit is an ancient species, the current situation of undercurrents has become meaningless.

"Ancient species, huh..."

There was a gleam in Maude's eyes.

This type of devil fruit, in terms of its rarity, is not surrender to the natural system.

The frenzied generation attracted by this kind of existence can't be lost.

What kind of "spectacle" will be brought forth by then?

Maude didn't care.

What he wants is prey and devil fruit.

That's it.

..........

With the Colosseum finals kicked off.

There are obviously fewer pedestrians on the street.

At this moment, most people watch the live broadcast at home or in a pub.

Luo took the [Ghost Cry] from Beibo, and went straight to the [Human Ladder Box] in the center of the city.

Those royal nobles who have only been active in the capital above the whales for a long time are basically in the VIP boxes in the Colosseum at the moment.

With them, there were also 70% of the soldiers transferred from the royal capital.

In other words.

The current royal capital is not well-armed, and it is also a good time to **** a lot of hanging vine roots.

If it weren't for a certain degree of harsh requirements for the [activity] of the roots, Luo wouldn't have to go to the whale's head to face the forces of the royal capital, and directly attack the inactive roots in the Colosseum.

Listening to the enthusiastic cheers from inside the Colosseum, Luo smiled disdainfully and came to the central stone pillar where the [human ladder box] was located.

He who came here at the point in time is already ready to fight.

However, what came into view was a group of soldiers who fell to the ground.

"Someone got on first?"

Looking at the soldiers who fell on the ground, a strange color flashed in Luo's eyes.

At this moment, there was an old sneer from the back of the other side of the stone pillar.

Hearing the familiar laughter, Luo's face became dark and he looked at the side of the stone pillar coldly.

The sneer from the back of the stone pillar gradually ceased.

Immediately afterwards, Rao G came out tremblingly from the back of the stone pillar.

"I didn't expect it, Luo...!"

"Rao. G."

Looking at the visitor, Luo's eyes were chilly.

Pointing the hilt of [Ghost Cry] at this group of fallen soldiers, Luo asked indifferently: "Did you?"

"No."

Rao squinted his old eyes.

He did not lie.

Before he came here, this group of soldiers had been knocked down.

Luo's Yu Guang glanced at the [Human Ladder Box] hanging on the stone pillar, and could see many traces of damage.

That means that he will not be able to go to the capital above the whale's head through the [Human Ladder Box].

It doesn't seem to matter whether or not Rao G did it.

While silent, Luo pushed the hilt of [Ghost Cry] with his thumb.

"Bebo, step aside."

"it is good!"

Beibo retreated decisively.

Rao looked at Luo who was making an attack, and said coldly: "Luo, don't you think you can beat me?"

"How can you know this kind of thing if you don't try it?"

Luo Leng smiled coldly.

Rao raised his head and laughed loudly when he heard the words, almost flashing his old waist.

The laughter was full of contempt.

And he also has the capital to scorn Luo.

After all, he has trained Luo before, but he has beaten Luo into a swollen bag countless times.

"Boom...!"

At this time, a sudden violent explosion from the Colosseum interrupted Rao's contemptuous laughter.

"It's started."

Rao restrained his laughter, looked over Luo, and looked at the billowing black smoke escaping from the Colosseum.

As soon as his voice fell, there was another violent explosion.

Luo Wei frowned, did not look back to see the situation in the Colosseum, his eyes always fell on Rao.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Within a few seconds, there were more than ten explosions in succession.

As the explosion faded, a loud noise interwoven from various panic and screams spread from the Colosseum to the street.

If an explosion was caused in the Colosseum with such a dense flow of people, even if Luo was not there, he could almost imagine the tragic situation there.

"Also..."

Luo turned his back to the Colosseum with billowing smoke, and looked at Rao G with cold eyes.

"The Don Quixote family has always been keen to collect devil fruits, and the prize of this Beast Contest is said to be an ancient devil fruit. It is not surprising that you will be here."

"Call the family name! Luo, now you are really out of awe."

Rao, who was short and withered, held his old waist with his hands and twisted it slightly, seeming to be warming up.

"However, you are right. We did plant it for ancient times. We will find you here, but it is an unexpected joy."

"Unexpected joy...?"

Luo Ba cried out, his tone was full of cold killing intent, and said, "Don't be a surprise that makes you breathe here."

"Huh!"

Rao's bald head flared up with several blue veins, and his upper body was leaning forward. The hands that had separated from his old waist were compared with the fingers of a "G" shape.

"You bastard! Don't forget who taught your physical skills!"

"..."

Luo said no more, and was ready.

Rao G stared at Luo's offensive and defensive posture, and sneered: "Don't worry, in order to pry out the fruits of your surgery, I won't kill you directly here."

Hearing Rao G's confident words, a ray of light flashed in Luo's eyes.

Since leaving the Don Quixote family, he has been secretly watching everything that the Don Quixote family has.

And Rao G's words revealed a message to him inadvertently.

Has the current Don Quixote family already mastered the technology of how to recover devil fruits?

If that's the case...

The man who used to get the fruits of surgery at all costs, after this, will only try to catch himself, right?

Thinking of this, Luo seemed to have the first chance to win.

With his current experience in surgery, he is indeed not sure to beat Rao G.

However, the difference between a deadly fight and alive capture is far apart.

"Room!"

Luo directly used the ability of the operation fruit.

A hemispherical space appeared out of thin air, suddenly enveloping him and Rao.

"Rao G, you have stepped into the dead zone."

Luo Qidao slashed forward before speaking.

Seeing no signs, there was a sudden wave of air on the waist of Rao G, a dozen meters away, and there was no other movement.

This knife didn't cut Rao G in half in the field of surgical fruit.

The expected phenomenon did not happen, Luo's eyes changed slightly.

Rao G sneered when he saw this: "It seems that my armed color is better than your'sharpness', the engraving of G!!!"

Suddenly, Rao G's old body rushed towards Luo with lightning speed.

The speed of running was so fast that there was no afterimage left.

"Ok?"

Luo couldn't see the movement of Rao G at all, and didn't even have room to think about it, so he directly used the exchange ability of the operation fruits to exchange himself with the body of a soldier not far away.

Huh!

Luo's body teleported to the ground more than ten meters away, but at his original location, an unconscious soldier of the Kingdom of Ahab appeared out of thin air.

At this moment, Rao G's figure appeared abruptly, and the hands that made the gesture of "G" were severely engraved on the soldier.

puff!

The extremely powerful force suddenly bombarded the hapless soldier into pieces.

"so close……"

Seeing this extremely tragic scene before him, Luo An was shocked.

If he is hit frontally, with his defensive power, although it will not be so miserable, it will definitely be seriously injured and lose consciousness.

"Hidden away."

Rao G maintained the attacking posture, and the old body trembled extremely quickly with a small amplitude.

He slowly moved his body and looked at Luo with a solemn face.

In Rao G's view, this is a battle without suspense.

Because, Eluo's strength is absolutely impossible to beat him.

.........

Colosseum.

The auditorium was in chaos.

Just a minute ago, Conan of the Liefang Pirates defeated his opponent and won the champion of the Beast Contest as a strong man.

The audience who witnessed the results of the Beasts finals received the warmest applause and cheers.

On the ring, the beast-shaped Conan squinted his eyes to enjoy the cheers from the audience.

But at that time, dozens of violent explosions without warning swept across many places in the auditorium in an instant.

Thick black smoke rolled, nearly a thousand spectators were killed on the spot.

This sudden upheaval immediately stopped the warm atmosphere in the Colosseum.

Immediately afterwards, the panicked audience pulled their legs and fled, pushing and shoving, and countless people were caught under their feet.

The surrounding chaos did not affect Maude who was sitting still.

Despite his expectations, Maude didn't expect those guys who wanted to take the Devil Fruits to kick off the curtain with such brutal methods.

Maude looked up and looked at the crystal box still hanging quietly in the sky.

After this, I am afraid there will be thousands of victims in the Colosseum.

"boom--!"

In the chaos, a gunshot cut through the air.

A bullet fired from a corner of the auditorium accurately hit the rope tied to the crystal box.

Sneer!

The rope snapped.

The crystal box containing the devil fruit fell from a high altitude to the ground.

"Oh oh oh!"

At almost this moment, bursts of excitement and roar erupted in the audience.

At this moment, a slender fishing line was thrown towards the crystal box that was in free fall.

The hook at the end of the fishing line actually hooked the small round mouth above the crystal box.

"Haha, the devil fruit is mine!"

An exhilarating voice immediately resounded through the audience.

The people staring at the devil fruit were stunned to see the crystal box being hooked away out of thin air by a fish hook, and then to follow the prestige, only to see a slender man trying to pull back the fishing rod in his hand.

"It's Glilla, a sea angler offering a bounty of 66 million!!!"

Someone instantly recognized the man who had hooked the crystal box with the fishing line.

Maude also saw this scene.

There is no shortage of strange people and things in the world.

When he thought about it, Maude took out the Dark Crow and pulled the trigger at high altitude.

The lead projectile wrapped in heat flew out, breaking the slender fishing line that was moving at high speed.

"What, what!?"

Sea angler Greila stared at the fishing line being interrupted, with a look of disbelief.

That thin fishing line?

how can that be? !

Bang bang——!

Maude stepped on a burst of air and lifted into the air, and under the gaze of many stunned eyes, he caught the crystal box containing the devil fruit.

At this moment, the muzzle of the flintlock he held in his other hand was still emitting white smoke.

It seems to be telling a fact to the owner who has gathered countless eyes.

Just now, he shot and broke the fishing line.

Therefore, it is also qualified to get this much-anticipated trophy.

"It's Bacardi Maud!!!"
